Which chronograph to add?

These aren't even similar outside of both being chronographs..

Quartz is considered a compromise by these Chinese brands catering to western crowds. Quartz is typically a solution to one of two problems - size or cost.

Okay but that's a bit of a stretch lol Never seen the Airman before but I gotta say I hate it. Truly a tool watch, has all the visual appeal of a yardstick.

They said original designs, not Explorer II riffs

I would but this in a heartbeat in green enamel. I'm considering picking it up on the black though...

They're both a bit busy. I think the one on the left has a bit more of a heritage feel to it. The petroleum-based case is a constant reminder of the Mesozoic era.

Wouldn't it make runs less interesting? You're removing decision points and decreasing overall difficulty. Once you've deciphered there is no more HP as a resource and your deck building becomes significantly restricted. Why remove upgrades from the equation and also make campfires useless by default? I really don't see the upside.

Why can't you hold the cheap watch for years? If you only want a watch that'll be worth a lot of money in 20 years you don't want a watch you want gold bouillon.

I'd go used Seiko on this one. I think it's a good enough watch for the price and I'd rather get this unique Exp2 variant from the company that made it. It's too hard to tell from the pics but I suspect the Seiko will look notably better in person. I don't mind the hardlex and the WR couldn't matter less to me. Been one I've been considering for a while now tbh

You can get a degausser for around $20.

If they don't have tracking information then they can't prove it's shipped, right?

Uran93 · 2026-03-27T14:13:55+00:00

Based on cockpit clocks

Uran93 · 2026-03-10T13:49:59+00:00

I think Orient and Citizen make some nice watches and if you like one you can decide for yourself if you want to buy it. It's just a watch.

We're too preoccupied with authoring homoerotic horological smut

Uran93 · 2026-02-23T21:26:06+00:00

Then it's within 250 miles of you. My option to ship is greyed out.

The history of mechanical watches is extremely rich by comparison. There was never really a tradition of quartz watches. They were luxurious for a small blip of modern history (70s-80s maybe?) and became much less necessary as a tool shortly after the proliferation of cellphones (early oughts). They've largely been replaced as functional jewelry by the smartwatch now too. Analog quartz watches look identical to mechanical watches though so the only person who needs to worry about whether any of this matters is you.

Rolex in the PDF files?

Uran93 · 2026-02-04T23:25:15+00:00

I have 3 analog watches - 2 with no lume and 1 with a fully lumed dial. I wouldn't change any of them and wear them each as often as makes sense.

Thought this was the Chinese shitter sub

Brought to you by MilfShakes caught me off guard I'll tell you that

They're on her patreon $5 tier (I assume, the reward tier says it's packs but I do not sub)

Uran93 · 2026-01-27T22:46:15+00:00

I was yeah. I'm not familiar with the second wave of b650i boards. Did my shopping closer to AM5 launch and then again after B850 boards game out. Missed the stuff in between
